GPS / Tracking collars.


Recommended Posts

Just out of interest, does or has, anyone on here used a tracking collar on their dog/s?

 

I've been out once with some lads that used them to great effect, and the americans etc use them a lot.

I know the aussies and kiwis use them on their pig dogs,as they can end up miles away, but I can't see much use for them on running dogs here in the UK.   Cheers.

Simo - that would be good mate, cheers!   Chart - Sorry, wasn't meant to be so cryptic. An example of their use would be, before the ban, running large quarry such as deer, with a dog in the daytime

red dawn, it was called loc8tor pet, it was no good for ferreting the thing didn't work underground lol i will dig it out put post up mate

Chart - I can, and if you cannot, maybe your not thinking hard enough.

 

Rob - Yes, but that's not what this thread is about.

Chart - Sorry, wasn't meant to be so cryptic. An example of their use would be, before the ban, running large quarry such as deer, with a dog in the daytime, in wooded, or very rough undulating ground, and the dog being led on a merry dance out of your sight, and then pulling down the quarry. Obviously it could not be retrieved, and if the dog returned you could lose the quarry. So a gps would be handy. Another example might be hunting up on big old rough moors or mountainsides, and putting a fox up, and the hunt, leading the dog waaaaay out of your sight, it'd be nice to know which direction to start walking. Thats the best i can do on here mate.

 

Nancy - do you know what collars?
